Headset blocker with OEM ear plugs - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Is anyone using a heafset blocker that works with the HTC ear plugs. When im jogging on my tredmill my dog will bark at the squirrels outback and it seems every loud noise changes a song.

What is a headset blocker and why does your music player change songs when it hears noise?

When i plug in headphones, insted of just the headphone icon at top it shows the headset icon with microphone. By doin that i think it enables voice commands therefor when it hears a noise it changes songs. Headset blocker blocks it from going into headset mode

I know there is an option in Google Now to listen for bluetooth mic, plug your headset in and see if it gives an option for that mic.

I have the same exact problem. Wizdroid doesn't work. I can use the HTC headphones or a pair of BOSE headphones (with microphone) that I have. Regardless, if it hears any kind of external noise, it'll start changing songs, or stopping music or dialing phone numbers. It's really annoying. I can't even put it in my pocket and walk around, it'll start dialing phone numbers. I have to keep it steady and not move the wire around in order for them to work properly.

I think I'm just going to switch mine out since it's still under warranty. I have a lot of other problems with the phone too (camera tint, starting to feel some lag, my boomsound isn't as loud as other htc one's, etc.)
Does anyone know if Sprint stores do warranty exchanges? I really don't want to send my phone in to HTC and wait for them to send it back to me.

From past experience, unless you have the insurance you will need to send it in if its past the first 14 days. I had a problem with the camera on my E4G and the would not range it even thought it was under warranty.

Are the speakers really that loud?

I keep hearing how these speakers are suppose to be so loud but mine don't really seem to get that loud, not sure if something is wrong with mine or others are just over exaggerating, I was trying to show them off to a buddy at work and played a YouTube video and we could barely hear it, so then I played some songs straight out of the internal memory and it wasn't really to much louder, I got the volume turned all way up and beats audio on, maybe there is some other eq somewhere I don't know about? My old evo 4g was almost just as loud

The one I am sending back were not that loud, but they would fade in and out to really loud to barely being able to hear. Also the crackling.
Mine are really loud with no crackling. The first time I got a notification it was startling how loud they were. Games sound amazing.
Won't be able to say for sure until I get mine Monday, but I went to the sprint store and played with the display today. I think the speakers are a touch over hyped. They are definitely louder than any phone I've had personally...but didn't seem like some people make them out to be.
Again, I'll know for sure Monday..

The speakers for me are very loud and clear. It's hard to believe they are on a phone

Mine are extremely loud, my wife and a few coworkers have been taken aback by them. Yesterday my wife texted me while she was upstairs and I was down. After her first text she tested right afterwards telling me to turn my phone down because she could hear it from up there.

For phone speakers they are very loud and clear and people are not exaggerating. You're phone may be alright, you may just have unrealistic expectations for what they can do with tiny speakers in a handset.
My Note II is about as loud but doesn't sound anywhere near as good.

Honestly mine are appropriately loud if that makes sense, well except for when turned down to lowest volume they are STILL kind of loud. It's kind of startling how loud it is, I actually jump sometimes from getting a text or email because it's just abruptly loud. It is something to get used to, but it seems you may have to return yours because it does seem there is something wrong.
A good rule of thumb for max volume on the HTC One speakers is that it should "fill the room" with sound. I can play mine max volume in my room at the other end of the house and hear it perfectly fine while in the kitchen.
I bought one of these when I got my One. I'm use to hearing things this loud so I don't expect much from phone speakers. Ring tones and notifications are crazy loud. Music isn't to crazy on my phone. I usually have my goodie bag of stuff, extra charger, external battery, this speaker, ipad, twinkles, you know the usual.

Are you running a Rom? Viperrom has the bootsound disabled by default. I have a flashable zip to reenable it

No unrooted stock
Mines is no sound also, completely stock still.
Oddly enough, mine also didn't have a sound when stock.
Was your phone on silent or vibrate before you rebooted? I swear it disables the start up sound but I could be wrong. It annoyed me so I deleted the sound file anyway.
Also, I wish the max volume could be lowered. The minimum volume is still freaking loud.

After having the phone a couple weeks or so now, and letting the epic feeling wear off. I've realized that while the speakers sound pretty good, HTC "boomsound" is a letdown.
My girlfriends s3 is just as loud but doesn't sound as good. Tonight the power went out at work at we gathered in the break room..a bunch of us starting watching YouTube videos. Granted I could barely load any with Sprints crappy network (and most definitely not hq) but when it did play, some dudes crappy LG was drowning my "boomsound" completely out.
The speakers are loud and do have a better sound than a lot of phones, but they are over rated. I like them, but I'm still slightly disappointed

I also found my speakers weren't incredible loud, the quality was amazing for being on a phone, but if i'm in an environment where people are talking, or outside and it's windy at all i have a hard time hearing the phone, but it is consistent, no fading or crackling or anything

Headphone static transfer

When using my Shure SRH440 headphones I can hear some kind of sound transfer when the back of the phone is rubbed. It gets worse when the phone is placed in my pocket where it rubs against the inside of my pocket. It seems like the headphone jack isn't properly isolated from the back or frame of the phone. Is this a defect in my phone or something that affects all Moto X phones. I have a Galaxy Note 2 and an iPhone 5 neither have this problem.

Just tried to duplicate your issue with 3 pairs of high end headphones and couldn't. It might be a defect with your phone.

No static with the following :
Hippo VB IEM
Atrio MG7 item
DT770 pro 80 ohm headphones
Custom one pro headphones
To my understanding, Shure IEM pick up noise very easily. They tend to be sensitive to the source used. Try another iem just to test.

I tested with both my Shure SE530 and E5C and had zero issue, both IEMs.
Tried to replicate with iPod ear buds, klipsch IEM's and another pair if Shure lower end headphones. All were fine must be my Shure SRH440's.

I spoke to soon. Looks like the static only becomes apparent after the screen on the phone comes on. I plugged my Shure SRH440's this morning and didn't have any static sound until I turned on the screen. I just tried my other headphones/ear buds and now the sound is apparent in all of them. The sound I hear isn't really static its more of a friction sound. I only hear it when rubbing the back of the phone. It sounds like someone walking wearing sweat pants. I can even hear it coming through my Beats Pill when I connect to it with a cable (not Bluetooth).

Glad you got it resolved! How do you like the SQ of the Moto X? I found it better then most Android phones, but slightly below iphone 5 in volume and bass quantity
I have no complaints. I have an iPhone 5 and traded in my Note 2 for this Moto X. The Moto X seems pretty good once you flatten out the EQ.

No sound through headphones

Since this morning when plugging in my headphones that came with the phone I am getting no sound whatsoever. When I unplug them I get sound as normal. Volume is set just above mid range. I also tried another set of headphones but still no joy. I have never had this issuebbefore today so it's really bugging me.
If anyone can help me I would gladly appreciate it, as I listen to music on the go frequently.
Many thanks

Connected headphones to my tv and headphones work fine.
Getting a very feint sound now from both headphones as opposed to before when there was no sound at all. Still unhappy though.

[Q] Apple Earpod issue !

Is it true that the Note 3 makes it incompatible with earphones from Apple?
When I plugged the apple earphones into my notes, I heard no sound at all even though the phone detected a head phone plugged in.
Anyone knows how to solve this? Because the Note 3 doesn't even come with earphones....

I haven't tried the old one, but the new one doesn't work. Can't hear any music. Actually, I can hear "sound", not music.... the sound is way to low and noisy......

[Q] Crackling sound with my new headphones

I got a new headphone sony xba 40 and when I put them in my phone a crackling sound comes out when playing the tracks, at first I thought its the headphones but I tried them for the same tracks on my ipod, ipad and laptop with no problem, I tried switching off beats audio which helped a little but still I can here the crackling sound.
Can any one help?

What do you recommend?
You might have dust in your headphone port. Try to see if there's any dirt in there and blowing it out might be Able to clear it up.
